What is AppsAnywhere?

Run all work software from one app store-like portal, regardless of OS, device and location. Windows, Mac, Chromebook, iOS and Andoid are all supported.

How does it work?

We call it Unified Application Delivery. By integrating with a range of leading deployment technologies (e.g. Microsoft SCCM/App-V, VMware, Cloudpaging), we enable organizations to deliver all their software apps to all employees and all devices, from a single web portal.

Once the delivery technologies have been integrated with AppsAnywhere, we use a proprietary tech called Smart Prioritization. We scan the device that’s being used to understand the context: is the device on or off site? What’s the OS? Is it user owned or corporately-managed? What’s the geographical location, which country is it being accessed from?

Smart Prioritization then launches the app using the delivery method that works best, based on the user’s particular individual circumstances, the type of app being delivered, and whether there’s any specific licensing restrictions. This all happens in the background, in no time at all, each time the user logs into AppsAnywhere (in a process called validation). Preferred delivery methods can be set using a simple drag-and-drop interface in the admin section.

How it works, in a nutshell…

Add an app and set all applicable delivery methods. Order them in terms of preference (Smart Prioritization)

Set access restrictions, namely the OS, device, location and whether the device is user or corporate-owned

Provision useraccess, setting who can access what (we integrate with Active Directory and Azure AD)

Deploy the apps to the AppsAnywhere access portal, ready to be run by employees on any device

Access apps, anywhere.

All you need is a device and a browser. When an app’s launched, AppsAnywhere automatically chooses the most appropriate technology to use to deliver it (based on location, OS & device), without the user needing to do anything other than click ‘launch’.

All your apps in one place.

You’re aware of VDI sprawl, but ‘portal sprawl’ is another real problem. No other technology can bring desktop, mobile and web apps all together in the same place, ready to use on any device.

How does it help?

By bringing everything together in one place, AppsAnywhere helps your workforce to get more done; whether it’s speeding up the time it takes end-users to get their software, or freeing up IT to be more efficient and concentrate on what’s important.

Improving access to apps across the City of Copenhagen.

Having previously used FAT installation methods, the City of Copenhagen understand the difficulties involved with maintaining large ‘images’ and updating their software pool. The IT department can now make applications available to students and parents outside the classroom, helping them improve their learning at home (BYOD).
